Haha seriously tho now it seems we’re getting a few more developer contributions, so hopefully its UX can improve.
Thank you so much for your work on the app, leaving this comment with it as we speak.
No probs!

Honestly, I feel so bad criticizing without contributing, but at the same time, I don’t have any relevant skills with which to contribute.
It’s no problem to do that, I welcome criticism of all our UIs! I just prefer that it’s actionable, specific, and on our issue tracker so that devs can work on them.
Don’t feel, as long as it’s constructive and we all are at an understanding that devs may take some time to acknowledge them (tons of prior work), it’s fine.
Of course you could always throw the a couple of cents if you got the chance, nobody minds being invited a coffee.
Honestly, and I say this with no disrespect, but I feel like the UX is pretty lackluster across this entire ecosystem. It’s understandable, since I would imagine the bulk of developer priority is going towards just making things work as reliably as possible on the backend side of things. Fortunately, given the open source nature of things, I feel like the community will fill these gaps in over time. :)
Web UI is actually really clean, fast, and very straight forward. I really enjoy it.
The apps, though, suck. They are buggy as all hell, and they are completely featureless.
Is the mobile experience really that bad to some? I’ve been running Jerboa since migrating and it’s working flawlessly, some it lacks some features but I find it extremely usable. Maybe I just got a blessed device.
BoostForLemmy? 👉👈
Yeah hopefully it becomes better. The biggest problem for me so far is the choppy scrolling.
I’d love for Jerboa to be more like Boost, which I’ve been using for years.
It’s all about slopes. The “”“ugly”“” (I pretty much love it already) Lemmy app is getting better, the ugly Reddit app is getting worse.
Hear me out: Infinity for Lemmy
That would be a warm, liquid dream. How amazing
I wish!! I love Infinity.
/u/whupazz is working on a reddit compatible api for lemmy, meaning most 3rd party apps should work with little or no modification. See it working with RedReader already: https://imgur.com/a/IF5HYGz
